BENEFITS OF MUAY THAI BOXING





This is the real deal! The extreme workout! Thai Kickboxing, also known as Muay Thai is the national sport of Thailand. Although many people think of Thai boxing as the toughest and most physically demanding ring sport in the world, it is also excellent for street self-defence, ladies.

Many UFC and PRIDE fighters are now learning Muay Thai due to its effectiveness and the ability to utilize the techniques in Mixed Martial Arts competitions.


With Muay Thai you utilize you hands, legs, knees and elbows. It is deadly, but so much fun. Your training usually includes shadow boxing, heavy bag work, Thai pads, focus mitts and belly pads to teach you the right way to kick, knee, and punch and elbow with full power and precision.

Training also includes boxing techniques like jabs, crosses, hooks, uppercuts, spinning back fists, combinations, slipping, sticking, moving, footwork, clinching and stand-up grappling.

Funk is back in the ring and now training at The Mixed Martial Arts Athletic Club which is located in Toronto, Ontario, Canada at 271 Broadview just north of Dundas.

The club offers, Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Boxing, Women, Youth and Kids classes, which are taught by some of the world’s best instructors.

MMA Club also has the Muay Thai Kickboxing Challenge.

This is a Monday and Wednesday boot camp style class that will get you into shape and ready for the beach. Remember it's never too late to get started. The circuit takes 60 min and runs from 630 PM to 830 PM. Join in at any time. No experience necessary.

I invite you to try Muay Thai, whether through group classes, one on one, or boot camp. Come and train with Funk Roberts at the MMA Athletic Club

  1. Yeah! I definitely believe in kick boxing. I am from Singapore and the sport is really kicking butt here. I mean, you just do 30 mins of boxing, it really can get your heart rate up. Definitely good for your cardio.

  2. Funk Robert, I have some serious problem. I saw you movies and things at your blog. I am training muay thai but I have a problem with gaining muscles. You know, I am trying to add 2 more days of strenght training every week (3 times a week MT + 2 times a week strenght workout). Muay thai is pulling everything from me, I am athletic but I would rather have more muscles to gain more power of punches and kicking... I lost my faith. Do you have some workout which I could do in the days, where I am not training muay thai?
